2. Good news, but there is no excuse for AA to not be airing in Chicago or LA
One has to concede that they did not make the best business decisions at first.

9. Which decisions would those be?
Withholding payment from someone who breeched their contract and double-sold their air time?

3. Because of people like you an I.....
Who make it a point to support such radio. Unfortunately before this, we supported people like El Drugbo because there was no other choice....

6. I understand that AAR et al will move in the Twin Cities...
shortly to 950 AM, which will mean a much stronger signal than they're on now -- two stations in the hinterlands, with bad fadeout in much of the Twin Cities....
progress. pour it on.

10. Note that 1360 KLSD (?????) San Diego is owned by Clear Channel.
Notorious bu$h-supporting mega-corporation shifts loser AM station to Liberal Talk. The Head Knocker at Clear Channel would delay going to the restroom for forty-eight hours if he thought it would increase his profit margin.

Clear Channel does nothing that won't make money. Reckon they don't buy the assertion that "Liberal talk radio will fail."

14. IMHO, this proves a point...
... I've been making here for 2 years.

The media is the way it is not for ideology, but for money.

FOX is merely telling people what they WANT TO HEAR in order to gain eyeballs. The rest of the media is pretty much the same, with only a few exceptions.

Soon, people will WANT TO HEAR liberal talk because they will be searching for answers as to how the right has taken America so far off the tracks.

16. There are no less than four right-wing stations..
in Atlanta. It only makes sense that one liberal station could be successful.

19. Who is
I remember a Faux News anchor who interviewed someone about this and I remember wanting to throw a brick at the TV.

The man looked a little bit like Jerry Springer except he didn’t wear glasses. Who is that choad? Does anyone know?
